Archival Detail
Every single antique dealer on our platform is individually approved by our internal team. We verify their professional trade history, ethical standards, and photographic quality to ensure a secure, high-standard buying environment. Upon joining, every dealer agrees to a strict 9-point code of conduct. While issues can occasionally arise, our dealers typically resolve them swiftly and directly with the buyer. In fact, since our founding in 2002, Sellingantiques has only had to step in to help resolve an issue on roughly five occasions—a true testament to the quality of our dealers and their dedication to your happiness.
Our dealers are highly experienced in packing and shipping fragile, high-value antiques. Because you are in direct contact with the dealer, you will be able to easily go through all available shipping and insurance options together to ensure your item arrives safely.
Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

Khorasan carpets are traditional hand-knotted textiles produced in the Khorasan province of north-eastern Persia. They are renowned for their high knot density, fine wool quality, and intricate all-over floral or lattice patterns.

These carpets are crafted using soft, high-grade wool pile spun on a durable cotton foundation. Natural vegetable and mineral dyes were traditionally used to achieve rich terracotta, cream, and indigo shades.

Authentic pieces feature asymmetrical Persian knots, flexible cotton warps, and a soft, supple pile texture. The reverse side displays distinct, slightly uneven hand-knotting and muted colouration consistent with natural age.

Position the carpet to anchor a seating arrangement or dining space, allowing its detailed pattern to contrast with clean-lined furniture. The warm rust and muted blue tones complement both dark wood antiques and contemporary neutral upholstery.

Vacuum regularly using a suction-only setting without a rotating brush to protect the pile fibers. Rotate the carpet annually to ensure even wear and exposure to light, and professional rug cleaning is recommended for deep maintenance.
